Disease/Condition Glossary
Intestinal cystitis: Intestinal cystitis is a disease that causes scarring and swelling of the bladder wall. It is a painful bladder syndrome with bladder pressure, bladder pain, and pelvic pain. The pain could be mild or severe. Intestinal cystitis is more common in women than in men. Symptoms include pelvic pain, urgent and persistent need to urinate, frequent urination, and pain during sexual intercourse. Although the signs and symptoms of intestinal cystitis are similar to urinary tract infections, usually, there is no infection in case of intestinal cystitis. However, the symptoms may worsen if a person with intestinal cystitis gets an infection in the urinary tract.
